One response to “Government education needed on why people use people-smugglers, says Refugee Action Collective”

What everyone, including Ian Rintoul, need to understand is that refugees are not paying people smugglers to do anything because giving refugees a ride is legally NOT PEOPLE SMUGGLING.

It is simply giving people a ride and was legalised by two treaties, the refugee convention and the people smuggling protocol which says at article 19 that the movement of refugees across borders is excluded from the crime of people smuggling.
